More Than I Can Handle
My body was shutting down during Lit lecture today. My eyes weren't focused on Mr. Murphy at all.. Everything I wrote was in complete utter rubbish... I mean, I was awake, but 90% of my mind was drifting in outer space.
My hands were moving the pen, and ears listening to every word what Mr. Murphy has got to say about that Mexican woman, but my tiredness got to me first. I couldn't even pen the simple word 'father' - it turned out signaturish with a tremendous spelling error. Even my lecturer looked like an unidentified hazy blob when I was trying so hard to focus my eyes on him.
My last class ended at 7.30 p.m. French class was pretty boring I must say, but it's great to be learning something that I've acquired vast interest in. Haha, and Bernadette (the tutor's name) asked two other newcomers and I if we had any background in the French language. The first told her,
"Je sais francaise un peu."
And Bernadette gave her an exhilerated response. At least she knows that girl would be able to catch up on the past few lessons. And then she pointed in my direction. I simply replied,
"Je comprends francaise un peu"
Haha.. Her reaction was pretty much the same as the first, but I thought she must have felt really relieved. But when she asked the third, sadly, the student replied no. But its good that she told the whole class to do some exercises out loud so that the girl would understand the few basic questions asked in French.
Oh boy, the lesson was pretty long.. I reached home at 9.15 p.m. Quite late I must say, and I caught a little of Futurama while I had my dinner. And I did something really lazy after that, I just laid down my bed and dozed off for a few minutes (okay, maybe half an hour), but I'm THAT deadbeat! This is probably one of the longest days I ever had in school. But I just pray that I'd be able to keep up with this new lifestyle of mine.
Just a word of encouragement to all who feel tired too:
Isaiah 40:29-31
29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on
30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on
wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
